Hi there,
You can change your account email address from here:
https://wordpress.com/settings/account/
Please note that the change will not immediately take effect as you will receive a validation email at the new email address. Make sure to click the link in the validation email to confirm the email address change.
If you run into any issues, you can check out this guide below:
Cheers,

I tried, but I couldn’t. I was something like error.
Now I am not logged in that account now.
I don’t know the password of the firs account. If I try to log in, I will receive another password (at the mail that is for both profiles). I am affraid that this can affect my second account.
Am I wrong? Are the accounts related by this email? -
Hi –
Each account on WordPress.com requires a unique email address. It is not possible for 2 accounts to be listed under an identical email address.
-
One of the accounts is in wordpress.com another is in wordpress.org.
I am guest in the site where is my second account. So I have account but it is registered of another person. In my profile there is the email that I have used for my firs account.
So I am sure that both are using the same email.
The question is still available – are the both profile ralted by the email? -
To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
I’m not sure I understand your question, so let’s approach this from a different way. :)
What is the username that you’re trying to change the email address of, and what email address are you trying to change it to?

Thank you for your attention!
I will try to solve the problem. If I can’t I will write you a few days later. -
Ok. If you’re willing to share the site or username we can point you in the right direction for help. Cheers :)

Hi there,
If you’re certain that this is a WordPress.com account, then you can enter that username (instead of the email) in the password reset tool you’ll find in the link below. Then check every email address you have access to for the password reset message.

Hello again.
I still haven’t been able to solve my problem.I have 2 accounts in WordPredss. First is in WordPress.org, the second is in WordPress.com (I know it is different). First account is mine. The second was created by another user, but the specified email is mine (the same like the first email).
I want to load an image into Gravatar, but I do not know if the two profiles are bound via the common (the same) mail. Here are my questions:1. If I change the password of the First account (in wordpress.org) would this action affect the password of the Second account (in WordPress.com)?
2. Can I safely log in Gravatar and load the image or not (If I log in Second account in Gravatar, I will make in via the data of the first account because if the email)?
3. Are each profile individual, even though they use a common (the same) email? Are both of the profiles bound or not?

1. If I change the password of the First account (in wordpress.org) would this action affect the password of the Second account (in WordPress.com)?
No. Those accounts are completely unrelated to each other. You can read more about their differences here:
2. Can I safely log in Gravatar and load the image or not (If I log in Second account in Gravatar, I will make in via the data of the first account because if the email)?
Gravatar and WordPress.com are two products owned by the same company. Therefore, your WordPress.com and Gravatar accounts are linked automatically. If you change the profile picture on your WordPress.com acocunt it automatically updates your Gravatar account. Instructions on how to configure this can be found here:
3. Are each profile individual, even though they use a common (the same) email? Are both of the profiles bound or not?
If you’re referring to WordPress.com and Gravatar, then as I said above, yes they are linked.
If you’re referring to your WordPress.org and WordPress.org account, then no.
